Canyon Del Rio Estates - Unit 3 Block 16 Lot 8

Canyon Del Rio Estates is a beautiful undeveloped subdivision about 28 miles south of Albuquerque, in Valencia County. It is located in the eastern part of the valley, east of Belen and close to the Manzano Mountains and Cibola National Forest

This property is Unit 3, Block 16, Lot 8. It is large, approximately 5.75 acres.

You will love the Manzano Mountains, both for their breathtaking views and recreational opportunities. You will only be about 2.5 miles away from a gigantic acreage of US Forest Service land. The Cibola National Forest is one of our country's true treasures. You will be north of the Monte Largo Trailhead, and south of the Trigo Trailhead.

This eastern part of the valley has higher elevation, and in addition to the Manzano Mountain views to the east, west of you will be a very long view over the valley. Lot 8's elevation is approximately 5,385 feet, and elevation gradually decreases down to about 4,840 feet in the Rio Communities over 9 miles away.

There are very few people in this area. You will be living off grid, utilities have not been run this far out. Lot 8 has frontage on platted Filmore Loop, and Newcastle Boulevard is only about 280 yards to the south.

This can be the homestead of your dreams, or a secluded spot for you to occasionally camp or RV while holding the property for investment. If you do decide to build, Valencia County's property taxes are usually about 1/3 less than Bernalillo County's.

There are no active homeowners association or property owners association. The Valley Improvement Association no longer exists. However the covenants are reasonable and we strongly suggest that you comply with them. Please read the covenants here . These covenants provide long term assurance that this subdivision will remain a desirable place to live. Whether it remains sparsely inhabited or whether in the future there is residential construction, the idea is to set reasonable standards for the benefit of all. The major points seem to be that the ground floor of the residence must be at least 800 square feet, and that a garage is required.

Zoning is PD, or Planned Development. This zoning indicates flexibility in possible uses for the property. For any land usage questions, please all the county at 505-866-2050. The county ID number for this property is R049066.
